I see that people have jumped in to help, so it is probably good that you
pointed this out. At the same time, it is worth noting that the Unicode
conference is currently going on in San Jose, and many of the candidates
for helping out with these kinds of issues are walking, talking and
sleeping Unicode and not checking emails, and many have been busy
preparing for or travelling to the conference as far back as Sept. 3.

I would consider it unfortunate timing rather than an indication of
isolation.

The conference is very exciting by the way!
